Hi, I just read your article through DPS and there were some beautiful pics of a family with a newborn. I'm wondering if you use a particular filter to get the really soft look that they have. I haven't really used filters a lot, but I've explored some of the ones in Lightroom and none of them seem to have that softening effect. If you get it some other way, could you share how? Thanks

Hi Jennifer! For my indoor newborn sessions, the key to the soft look is florabella's "hazy haze" action... I've had it forever, so I don't know if it's still available, but she makes beautiful actions. Good luck!
